Abstract
Mineral exploration projects often require the collection of large volumes of aeromagnetic data, which then require interpretation. Various semi-automatic interpretation methods exist which are used to assist the interpreter, such as Werner deconvolution (Hartman, Teskey, and Friedberg, 1971), iSPI (Smith et al, 1998), and Euler deconvolution (Hood, 1963, Reid et al 1990). The methods use different physical models and produce different outputs, but in general estimates of source depth and location will be obtained. Some methods (Mushayandebvu et al, 2001) also give the dip and susceptibility of certain source models.
